Hello,

while using power query on a folder with multiple file, I noticed that power query has changed the date field when imported from one of the files. To make it clear, I have a date/time field that is 11/05/2023 02:00:00 referring to 11 May 2023 (the cell is formatted as dd-mmm-yy h:mm:ss). However, power query imported it as 5 November 2023 !. how can I revert the date back to the correct format?

Note that the regional date is set to 11 May 2023.
 
Define type with locale... will do too.
